Gold Point Passive pre-amp
I use passives. I agree with Clio 09, and that is, to try it before to see if it fits in your system. One thing when going to a passive I have found is that it cleans things up, cleans that window on the sound. It may be perceived as making things... 
The Weavers
To me the best musical instrument is the voice. It is easy for me to get caught up in good vocal harmonies such as the Weavers, Crosby Stills Nash and Young, The Persuasions, Simon and Garfunkel, Peter Paul and Mary, the Beach Boys, Everley Brothe... 
Non-feedback amplification topology and frequency
Thanks Atmasphere. 
Non-feedback amplification topology and frequency
Atmasphere, is it so that a non negative feedback design does not have any odd order harmonics? If that is not true where does that leave us? I highly respect your dialog on this forum and I don't want to stop it so my question is a sincere one. I...

D'Agostino Momentum amp melts down
I think, but only Wolf will know this for sure. That people that pay 55,000 for an amp or an ape or a meal or what ever, they want attention. So in that respect Dan A' is a genius. His product breaks and the owner gets some more attention. So does...

I do it just to show someone that said I couldn't that I can. For instance my wife says I can't sell my dog. So right now I have a 2005 pure bred boxer for sale. It is a one owner and has all the upgrades you can possibly have. I have kept it in a...

Rower I think every time one looks for a component or to improve a system and one doesn't trust someone else to narrow it down to a few items for you, and you are afraid you won't get the very best component at the very moment in time and space yo...

The one and only acoustic instrument?
The most colorful sounded instrument for me is the guitar. It might(not trying to start anything by this)be like systems. The guitar is the one instrument I can almost never tire of. For me it is not even close with any other instrument. 
What Instrument would you listen to?
I feel that guitar comes closer, better, to a variety of instruments, voice included than any other that I am familiar with. It can have a percussive quality to it, a voice quality to it, it can carry a rhythmic quality or foundation of a piece. I... 
Can anyone explain cable risers?
